I'd better start by admitting that I'm a fan of KDE. It's not because it works like Windows, but for the quality of the tools available. However, a GUI is just a way of doing something and I think I've been a bit dismissive of the Gnome desktop up to now. I read a few reviews of Ubuntu, looked at their web site and decided to have a look. I wanted a general purpose (desktop) distribution and an opportunity to get to know the Gnome utilities.

- Don't like Gnome

- Don't like the default theme
- Don't like Sudo
Got bored and skipped most of the rest.
Ubuntu is a Gnome based debian distro which is designed for desktop use and tries to avoid the whole root user thing without opening the OS up to the usual XP security issues most inexperienced users face.
Why don't you go download a f***ing KDE-based distro and stop wasting my bandwidth? It's not like you don't have a choice after all!!
